Abstract

Over 60 per cent of the country's population, compromising several million small farming households, depends on agriculture as a principle income source and land continues to be the main asset for livelihood. By the utilization of Drip Irrigation we will save water and fertilizer provided to the crops. By automating it we will save more water and increase our economy with increase in production and reduction in man power. As the timings provided for agriculture are very inconvenient also thanks to lack of rains and scarcity of land reservoir. There is improper supply of water to the land which affects the assembly . Thus it’s necessary to seek out an automatic system which may provide required water to the farm counting on the crop water demands and therefore the electricity availability timings. This project is targeting developing an automatic drip irrigation system using plc which is operated on two modes namely timer mode and sensor mode as per the convenience of farmer.
